streets, water lines, drainage system
and the Coulter Field airport. Also
defeated were a proposed city pub
lic works service center, additional
city parks and recreational facilities
and a city animal shelter. The de
feated propositions would have cost
over $10 million.
Joyce didn’t rule out the possibil
ity of another bond election soon,
possibly containing some of the de
feated propositions.
“I guess we ll go back to the draw
ing board,” he said. “But the city is
growing and we need to meet those
needs.” Citizens need to be better
informed of the city’s needs, , he
said.
City officials were uncertain
Saturday whether any legal restric
tions would prevent another bond
election soon, but they said they
will try to find out.
If the law will allow, another bond
election appears likely in the near
future.
